Example of Scraping Web Pages in LabVIEW

Here we demonstrate an approach to finding data in a web page and bringing it into LabVIEW with a write-up available at the following url: http://rajsite.com/2016/06/25/scraping-web-pages-in-labview.html An approach frequently attempted to capture data in a web page from LabVIEW to embed a Web Browser into a VI and send commands for it to render a web page and retrieve some data. However, with the knowledge that data in a web page is likely going through HTTP requests, we can use tools like the Chrome Developer Tools to find where that data comes from and request it directly. This video shows just one example of using Chrome Developer Tools to find relevant HTTP requests being made in a webpage and using the HTTP Palette in LabVIEW to emulate those network requests in a VI.
